Mitten Brew: Bottle Shop Highlight

DEARBORN — Don’t let the name fool you. Merchant’s Fine Wine has lots of love for the craft beer crowd.

The store is located at 22250 Michigan Ave. in Dearborn, and to say it offers a vast selection would be an understatement … customers have around 1,300 different beers to choose from.

“It’s a huge store … Its enormous, and almost half the store is beer.”

The beer department is arranged alphabetically so that customers can easily find what they’re looking for. In addition, there’s a cider and meads aisle; a gluten-free and organic aisle; and an expanded single-bottle section. The store’s make-your-own six pack option is especially popular, and bottles are individually priced so customers can mix and match anything that’s in stock. Draft beer is also a huge seller, and staff are readily available to assist with customers’ keg and tapping questions.
